Cable Ordering Information

Output (W/Ft.) Nominal Voltage (Vac) Model Description Wt./1000′ (Lbs.) Chromalox Order Code
8 120 CWM 8-1C Standard tinned-copper metallic braid for additional  protection and ground path 96 392139
CWM 8-1CT Fluoropolymer corrosion resistant overjacket over braid for hostile or corrosive environments 110 392163

  1. Twin 12 AWG Copper Buss Wires – Provide reliable, consistent electrical current
  2. FEP Insulation Jacket Electrically insulates buss wires
  3. Pairing Jacket Secures two buss wires together and provides wrapping surface for Nichrome wire
  4. Nickel Chromium Wire – Cable heating component
  5. FEP InsulationRugged outer sheath protects heating cable, assures longer service life, and provides protection against environmental application hazards
  6. Tinned Copper Braid – Plated copper braid increases robust construction, provides ground path and provides additional protection in any location (suffix “C” in model number)
  7. FEP – Fluoropolymer overjacket, over the braid, provides protection from most aqueous and chemically corrosive solutions (suffix “T” in model number) – ideal for trace heating systems installed in hazardous areas with explosive atmospheres
